2 from me this February, the continuing inversion layers at the start of the month (similar to mid-January) once again led to some spectacular morning sights across these parts of the western peak District.

This picture was taken after sunrise looking towards Sponds Hill (Cheshire) and the 'bowstones' Gate. A popular walking route near to Lyme Park.


The second picture is fog beginning to rise out of the Goyt Valley, looking at it northwards from Whaley Moor. Taken just before midday as the sun's heat was beginning to work on the inversion layer.
